Republicans hate "BiG gOvErNmEnT" so much they are completely letting all these giant corporations price gouge and report record profits while workers are struggling. Regulation is bad and scary! Them and their rich donors will still be fine when gas, egg, and bread prices skyrocket...
Yep. Companies have said that they like the tariffs and inflation because they can raise prices and consumers can't tell if it's the greed or inflation that raised those prices.
“Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell”

Mine was the 666th upvote, hasn't happened in a while.
When trying to decide which business to burn down at the next riot, can we see more banks targeted? Landlords would be good too.

Avarice?
Asocial mental decline?
Problematic economic hoarding?
Acting like a fucking cunt?
Honestly, could be any of these.
Rent-seeking?
I'm fairly certain that they only use that word when it's the poors asking for money.
Which one?
Don’t forget layoffs too.
I don't think you understand. These poor companies are only doing what they must to provide excellent products and services to the masses. If you cannot afford them, simply stop being poor.
Need the Izma gif for this one. “You really should have thought about that before you became peasants!”
Ikr, think of the shareholder value that is being created.
Have you tried asking your parents for a few million dollars?
Agreed. Sick word play/ burn. Now what?
Such as Micron's 89% margin on stuff they sell to businesses which create consumer products, up from somewhere around 30%
Late stage capitalism. Working as intended.
„Working ass” intended.
